Sheltering From the Rain

"Don't look now, but there's a group of really strange looking humans in their crinkly coats, walking in the rain and looking at us through those long, black tube things!!!"

Well, the look these sensible sheep gave us as they sheltered from the rain could well have been subtitled with that!

Today Gracie G and I went to our first 'blipmeet' at the National Trust gardens at Stowe.  It was great to meet the following fellow blippers for the first time: Black Tulip (thanks for organising) with JJ, Chantler63, JohnH1989, LooseCanon, Technophobe, Igor, AnnieMay, Radiogirl and B4YUU.  I hope I've not forgotten anyone, it was a bit like a secret society with blip names and real names to remember!!!

It was great to meet fellow photography enthusiasts and share tips about cameras, settings and software..........as well as the best places for Afternoon Tea in London!!!! 

Stowe was not at its best today in the rain, so hopefully we'll return in better weather.  I've also included an extra of some 'drippy' berries - more reflective of the weather
